In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, and salt.
Add the water, honey, and olive oil to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough starts to form.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Fold in the sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F).
Punch down the risen dough to release excess gas and shape it into a loaf or your preferred shape.
Place the shaped dough onto a parchment-lined baking tray and let it proof for another 30 minutes.
Once the dough has risen, place it in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the bread has a deep golden color and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
